It's Not About the Alcohol

EP211 Are you drinking because your hormones are in survival mode? with Period Whisperer Bria Gadd


Listen Later

Today’s episode is a must-listen for any woman navigating midlife hormonal changes and struggling with overdrinking. 

Colleen sits down with Bria Gadd—the Period Whisperer—to talk about the real reason so many high-achieving women hit a wall in their 30s and 40s. This is an honest conversation about how to hear your body’s whispers before they become screams, and why pushing through your exhaustion puts your body into “health debt.”

 

If you’ve ever wondered whether your fatigue, mood swings or wine cravings have more to do with stress than weakness, this episode will show you how to shift from survival mode to sustainable wellness.

 

💡 Key Takeaways:

• Your period symptoms are not random—they’re messages. • “Health debt” happens when you spend more energy than you have. • Overexercising and undereating can actually cause you to drink too much. • The exact strategies that created your success may be causing your burnout. • Recovery starts with simple, foundational shifts like sleep, food, movement, and pleasure.
